Yep, this is going to be very bad. If you're out of the loop, when the game first got hype, some users were voicing their complaints about the similarities to WarZ (Renamed: Infestation Survivor Stories), Shattered Skies, Last Man Standing and Romero's Aftermath. These are all games made by Sergey Titov, a man well-known for creating shitty cash-grab games.

They are using the exact same engine (Nightshade engine). You can see the horrible running animations are the same as all Sergey Titov games and it's extremely clunky. My opinion is that the clunkiness is never going to change, because it hasn't even been changed in previous games yet.

What you see in the gameplay video is heavily scripted and won't turn out like that. Please watch the first Alpha gameplay shown on WarZ, around five years ago. Back then, they made an incredibly scripted video that hyped up the game even more, and if you don't know, WarZ (Again, renamed to Infestion: Survivor Stories) turned out to be a huge cash-grab and some users even saying "scam".

Additionally, I have no doubt the game will be pay-to-win, since that's what they've done in the other games and if you take a look at the pre-purchase page, you can see the benefits are very... Pay-to-win-ish..

My recommendation is to stay as far away from this game as you can. First, they used the Rockstar forums to "leak" Red Dead Redemption 2 screenshots, which turned out to be from this game in order to cash in on RDR2 hype.... Allegedly.. A great marketing move, but still a pretty scummy one. Then, all of a sudden, they just skipped their plans for a kickstarter because they saw the hype and are now going to release a Wild West MMO in alpha, a couple of months after the reveal. They are also now in total denial mode when asked about Sergey Titov, saying he is not involved in any way. The developers know him though, since some developer or something is friends with him on Facebook, just watch this video from BigFryTV for more details on that.

I'm telling you right now, these people keep throwing shitty, clunky games with Pay-to-win into the gaming industry and they're making bank on it. Please make sure you're educated in the matter before purchasing this game from them. I can't stop you, but I'm telling you, this is the same as WarZ, Romero's Aftermath, Shattered Skies and Last Man Standing. They keep releasing the same stuff with a different "game mode" and setting.
